Shakeology? Thoughts?

If you eat garbage and never workout, you will not lose weight, regardless of Shakeology or not.

Not true.

Ugh. Let me rephrase: If you do not change your lifestyle, you will remain the same. Which is true if you are drinking Shakeology or not drinking Shakeology.

You shouldn't seek out things you perceive will make this journey easy. It's not easy. It takes time and effort and consistency.

Now that I know how to weigh everything and use the MFP tools properly it is pretty easy. I also did not change my lifestyle. I only eat less (of the same foods I gained weight with) then what I did before. I workout, but always have. So no lifestyle changes here. Nope no sir. I only live once!

Not worth my time

Hey Chubby_Bunnii, I have been on Shakeology for a year and I love it, but I want to make sure you understand something about it - it is not a weight loss product. Shakeology is a protein/superfood supplement that can be used as a meal or snack. I have a small breakfast with coffee, workout, and on my way out the door to work is when I have Shakeology. It is a healthy thing to consume and I really enjoy what it does for me so I keep drinking it.

Doing healthy things, like exercising, eating real food, drinking plenty of water and changing your bad habits - that's what is important. The side effect of being healthy is weight loss. So some people do lose weight with Shakeology. Me, I haven't lost a single pound, but that's because I reached my goal weight before I started the product. If you eat garbage and never workout, you will not lose weight, regardless of Shakeology or not.

You do realize that Shakeology is overpriced garbage, right? And if you say it's not, how many of the 70+ "superfoods" are anywhere near an efficacious dosage for humans?

I'm not really interested in debating foods people choose to eat here. People can eat whatever they want. Have a great day!

There is nothing to debate, Shakeology is a waste of money...

You are correct though, people can eat and spend their money on whatever they want. If you want to waste your money on a worthless product so be it.

I feel sad for the people who believe they need this stuff to succeed and I feel anger towards the crooks taking their money in the process...

I loved the chocolate shakeology. I got a few free packets when I ordered one of the beach body videos. I never ordered the actual system because it was just too pricey to me and I had no interest in being a distributor.

I get my plant based protein from Whole Foods for a fraction of the cost and it works wonders.

But shakeology was delicious. Only had the chocolate.

I do not sell it. I use it ever day. And it makes a huge difference for me . It has stopped my sugar and carb cravings. And i have always been a huge junk food junkie.

One of my good friends is a beachbody coach and gave me a free bag of shakeology( I am sure hoping I would turn into a customer). It was ok. But I tried it once and gave the rest to my neighbor. I'd rather eat real food, and I already have a fav shake if i have one at all. It's too much and you can get GREAT results WITHOUT it.
